On Sept. 15, St. John’s honored students and teachers for their achievements during the 2023–2024 school year at the annual Academic Convocation. Each September, St. John’s recognizes current sophomores, juniors, and seniors for their academic success during the previous school year.
St. John’s Archbishop Hannan Chapter of the National Honor Society welcomed 147 new members to its ranks, and faculty members Billy Layton, Emily Forde, Kelly Leonard, and Christine Burnette spoke about the society’s four pillars: leadership, scholarship, service, and character.
St. John’s academic departments presented individual awards to outstanding students in each class, and 171 students were recognized with the San Miguel Febres Cordero Award for earning straight As last year.
Two educators were also recognized at this gathering. St. John’s faculty selected math teacher Kevin Morse and science teacher Connor Richardson as the recipients of the Gasser Award, which is presented annually to two teachers who serve as Christian role models for the students and who are committed to the school’s philosophy and excellence in teaching.
Congratulations to this year’s honorees!
